- A Fine French Bronze Statue of
A Fine French Bronze Statue of "Jeanne d'Arc en Cheval" after Emmanuel Frémiet (French 1824-1910) original maquette 1872-73 master modelle for this size 1874-75; this cast signed "E. FREMIET" on top surface of self-base and inscribed "F. Barbedienne Fondeur Paris" on side; this example probably cast c. 1875-1910; height 29 in. width 17 in. depth 4 in. Note: Emmanuel Frémiet's monument was quietly inaugurated on 20 February 1874 but was immediately engulfed in storms of protest from Republicans suspecting its Royalist overtones. While Parisians however soon came to love the evocative naturalism of Frémiet's splendid design (now uniquely preserved in 2-1/2-foot reductions such as the example offered here) the sculptor himself resolved to remodel it and - even more drastically - to replace it. In response to a commission from the city of Nancy in Joan's native Lorraine he unveiled a second design in the Salon of 1889 which substantially simplified and classicized the horse while adding 9 inches to the rider's height. The revised conception was accepted and installed at Nancy as well as cast for Philadelphia; while - unbeknownst even to Frémiet's wife - a clandestine cast was made in 1898 and secretly held in readiness. In April 1899 an allegation of subsidence caused by the construction of the Métro provided a pretext for Frémiet's removal of the original monument to the Barbedienne foundry where 200 workers hurriedly melted it down. At 6 am on 16 May 1899 Frémiet's privately-funded second version was reinstalled on the original pedestal under the gleaming "camouflage" of new gilding; it was not until 19 December 1903 that a published revelation obliged the sculptor to acknowledge the substitution. The design's second version proved durably popular: it was further cast at full size for Mirecourt Lille Castres and St-Étienne in France as well as for Melbourne (1906) for Portland Oregon (1924) and most recently for New Orleans (cast 1958). This last version was a gift from the People of France to the city of New Orleans and now stands near the edge of the French Market at Decatur and St. Philip Streets.
